We think you're going to be handy beer bitches on the trail.

I drove one for a few days as a dealer loaner. Went great in the bad weather we had here. I liked the interior. The tranny/TC noise was interesting. However, getting back into my H2 afterward was like getting off a church pew and moving to a leather sofa.
It was pretty cool though!
edit: Those window buttons SUCK! I had jam my elbow back and use my pinky.

I like the H3 - it was not out when I bought the H2, but again I would not have bought the H3 over the H2.
I would not have because I like having the small bed on the SUT and the grunt under the hood. I just prefer the full size truck size as a whole i guess...I have had many smaller trucks, and always come back to the big ones.
I have drove an H3, and I really liked the ride, and the feel of driving it around.

The H3 is an outstanding package for someone looking for that type of vehicle.

I think both are wasteful gas-hogs. Anything more than the Prius is overkill. Come on guys.

I sat in an H3 and couldn't stand the minimal visibility. I thought my H2 was bad, but the H3 is worse by comparison.

Not bad as a chick's truck </div></BLOCKQUOTE>My wife hated it, refused to drive it in the end. I've had three as loaners now for about a total of two months.
It is the size of a regular SUV, so driving through traffic, parking, etc, are all very easy. I found the performance to be fine and had no issues with it, it was great to drive around and handled well.
I felt very cramped behind the wheel, rear viz sucks and I just couldn't figure out how to use the window controls without dislocating joints.
Overall, I liked it, I've yet to be totally impressed with them off-road, but they are certainly way better than any other brands SUV. I think with a front locker, 6" lift and some decent tires it could be fun, but I ain't gonna buy one to find out.
At 41 I felt way too old for it and just couldn't help feeling that I needed to get some snow boarding gear and the compulsory backwards b-ball cap to fit in with it. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
Is this your dealer giving you it as a loaner? I keep getting crappy little cars.

All these H2 owners are just jealous of and threatened by the H3
